Even though our lives don’t magically reset when the clock strikes midnight on January 1st, there’s no doubt that entering a new year gives us a newfound sense of possibility–which can make us resolution-happy. The problem is, when we put too much pressure on ourselves with a lengthy list of “shoulds,” we often end up feeling even worse. That’s why Well+Good’s 2022 ReNew Year Program is focused on refreshing and resetting our habits–not reinventing them. What if we didn’t need to change anything about ourselves to feel our best? In this episode, we sat down with a positive psychiatrist and a joy expert to answer: How can we infuse more joy in our lives this year instead of stressing about resolutions?
HOST:
Ella Dove, Director, Creative Development at Well+Good
GUESTS:
Dr. Samantha Boardman, Positive Psychiatrist, Author of “Everyday Vitality,” Founder of the “Positive Prescription” Blog
Ingrid Fetell Lee, Designer, Author of “Joyful,” and Founder of “The Aesthetics of Joy” Blog
WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT:
Dr. Samantha instructs us to be ‘deliberate about delight,’ and breaks down the best method for blocking out the ‘pings and dings’ around us. Check her out here and Positive Prescription here.
Ingrid explains that the way we’ve been thinking about joy is all wrong–but good news, making one quick mental adjustment can help us to find more of it in our day to day lives. Find her here and check out The Aesthetics of Joy here.
